I’m leaving you with this beautiful image, while I take a much needed holiday (vacation). I won’t be able to blog (or read blogs) as I’ll have no internet access while I’m away. I plan on taking lot’s of photo’s for more scripture- pictures that I shall post on my [...]

Scripture – Picture 13

Taken from a moving vehicle in Wales 2006

Hurry, hurry, hurry, life is such a hurry. Sometimes we might just need to stop what we’re doing and ‘know’ God in our day. How many times have we overlooked the beauty of people and places and experiences, because there’s always something we haven’t crossed off [...]

Touched by God

The Door to the Confessional, Sacred Heart Catholic Church
Post edited, see  below for details.
The other day I began reading one of my recent (and rather magnificent) charity shop finds, ‘A Touch of God’, which is a fascinating read of eight monastic journeys. A couple of pages in and Dom Philip Jebb’s story [...]

Llanberris 2007
Amidst the newstories of terrorism, war and other evils I think we sometimes forget that God made the world, good. We, the people of the good earth God made, are fundamentally good and not fundamentally evil.
Sometimes we need a little reminder.

This tree branches in this image remind me so much of the shape of the human eye that the scripture passage I chose for it seems to accompany it beautifully.
Enjoy!

Scripture – Picture 5

Isn’t this a lovely passage of scripture to accompany the above image? I think it befitting for this post to also include a recent meme tag from Jean, because it’s not just any old meme, but one that asks for a response of my heart in writing about 5 things I love about Jesus.

I posted this picture a little while ago on my old blog, but I’ve now added a passage of scripture to it to turn it into a Scripture-Picture. I’ll do this with a few others I posted on the old blog, because they are so well suited to adding [...]

*Fame! I Wanna live forever, I wanna learn how to fly, high…

Can you imagine my surprise this morning when after Mass I opened up the Diocesan Catholic Newspaper, Catholic Today, and found a photo I’d taken of our parish celebrations at Pentecost and the accompanying blurb I’d written – on the second page no less! Guess it takes something pretty awesome to knock the [...]

Scripture – Picture 3

 
Not so much words of scripture, but something to think about yes? We can believe that we will be better appreciated elsewhere, that our lives would be better if only we won the lottery (it’s unlikely) had a better car (well, possibly), found the perfect partner [...]

If you’re canny you’ll have noticed a new page tab at the top of my blog entitled Scripture-Pictures. As you may know, I used to be a professional photographer but I’m now more than a bit rusty around the edges so I just take snaps for fun. Sometimes, without any [...]

Prayer Request

This morning my daughter woke up upset, she’d had a bad dream about something happening to her grandma and grandad. I said it was okay, they were fine, that dreams sometimes seem real, but that all was well.
This afternoon, I’m pottering around in the house when I get a phone call. Mum is [...]

Forgot I’d got this photo I took of the sun setting over Llanrug, Wales last year. Hope you enjoy the passage of Scripture I added to it.
I’d like to post more of my photo’s with scripture passages, would you like me to? would they inspire you, encourage [...]

Man’s Best Friend

It’s incredible just how attached people get to their animals isn’t it?. When I was a little girl I used to pick stray cats and dogs up off the street and would build them shelters in the back yard… I’d have such fun until Mum would come and shoo them all away when she [...]

A Brief Reflection…

When I came over to WordPress from Blogger I was a little concerned that I’d lose lot’s of blog buddies and that the change over wouldn’t go down so well – but I have to tell you, I’ve been pleasantly surprised, since starting this blog. Not only have many dear friends come along [...]

Pro-Life Teen Mum faces exclusion for wearing T-Shirt

Thanks to a friend who just bought this to my attention…
A teenage mother in Scotland faces exclusion from school for wearing a pro-life T-Shirt, if she wears it to school again.
“I was wearing the T-shirt when a teacher approached me and said that I was never to wear it again because she found it [...]

Divorce Online

For those who are confused about this post I thought I should set in context to alay any fears that I’ve suddenly gone mad and am now advocating online divorce; this post is written with tongue firmly in cheek and veiled in thinly disguised derision…
Sod the spouse, forget the vows, shove the solicitors and divorce [...]

What a Week for Great Britain

What a week for Great Britain, eh? Blair left number 10 Downing Street and Brown moved in.
Madeliene McCann’s parents have been catapulted once more into the spotlight as two sicko’s attempted to extort £2.5m out of the family in exchange for information of Madeliene’s whereabouts.
Then there was yesterdays failed car bomb incidents, hundreds of [...]
